1 HIV/AIDS, Schools and Education A Global Strategy Framework Prepared by the UNAIDS Inter-Agency Working Group on HIV/AIDS, Schools and Education
2 State of the World s Children 2002, UNICEF "The impact of HIV/AIDS is crushing the attempts of countries all over the world to put human development and the rights of women and children first." HIV/AIDS, Schools and Education: Global Strategy Framework A broader approach is needed to contain the spread of HIV and address the socioeconomic impacts of HIV/AIDS.
3 The education sector must be seen, and must see itself, as a central player in this global priority. Protecting a new generation from HIV/AIDS is imperative to the future of education systems, which are themselves falling victim to the effects of HIV/AIDS. HIV/AIDS, School and Education: Global Strategy Framework
4 The purpose of the Strategy Framework To facilitate development of countrylevel strategic plans for HIV/AIDS prevention and impact management in education systems, as part of an expanded global response to the pandemic.
5 The focus Children and young people at or near school age, in primary and secondary school settings May also be relevant to other educational settings (pre-school, tertiary, vocational, non-formal settings)
6 The Strategy Framework can be used... To inform and guide education planners, policymakers, HIV/AIDS taskforce teams, teachers and their professional unions, & non-governmental organisations As a guide for country level action, to be adapted and implemented at all levels To complement the goals and strategies of existing international or national frameworks and plans for action (e.g., EFA and CRC plans) To support and expand upon the UNAIDS Framework for Global Leadership on HIV/AIDS, with regard to young people in educational settings To guide the work of international organisations
7 Lessons hard learned The scale of the pandemic today has exceeded worst-case projections for young people. In many countries, year olds constitute the majority of new HIV infections. By seriously affecting the supply and quality of education, AIDS is threatening recent gains that provided the most disadvantaged with access to school.
8 Global Total: 10.3 Million Young People (15-24 year olds estimated to be living with HIV/AIDS end of 1999) Europe 80,000 / 140,000 Central Asia <5,000 / <5,000 Americas 200,000 / 440,000 North Africa & Middle East 15,000 / 28,000 28,000 Sub-Saharan Africa 5,3000,000 / 2,600,000 East/South Asia & Pacific 880,000 / 660,000 Female /Male Source: UNAIDS/UNICEF 2000, The Progress of Nations 2000

10 On a positive note Education itself can reduce vulnerability to HIV/AIDS Education is the key to reducing stigma, promoting greater understanding of HIV/AIDS and providing skills necessary to protect oneself and care for others Schools have the opportunity to reach young people early, in the window of hope between the ages of 6-14 when few young people are infected Well-implemented school-based HIV/AIDS prevention programs have shown to reduce key HIV/AIDS risks
11 The goal of the Strategy Framework To increase the education sector s contribution To increase to the 2 key education and inter-linked sector s contribution targets: to two key and inter-linked goals: To achieve 25% reduction in HIV infection rates among young people in most affected countries by 2005, and globally by 2010 To ensure that by 2015, all children have access to and complete primary education of good quality
